She&#39;s incredibly lucky, we had a good oncologist and her tumor is responsive to chemo. She&#39;ll be on chemo the rest of her life, and she&#39;s hitting her third birthday in just over 2 months.<br /> <br />She&#39;s on something called metronomic or low-dose chemotherapy, which is low dose chemo and an NSAID daily. Very few chemo side effects. The first one caused hemorrhagic cystitis after about 7 or 8 months, she was switched to another chemo that doesn&#39;t work as well, and her tumor is still small. It was softball sized when it was removed partially, regrew to a mango, went away to &quot;too small to biopsy&quot; in 2 weeks on chemo. It&#39;s blown everyone&#39;s minds (meaning the oncologists and ours) that it has worked so well. We&#39;re much poorer, as it&#39;s not cheap, but she&#39;s happy and healthy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-61797254168449648502013-03-05T21:37:17.018-05:002013-03-05T21:37:17.018-05:00What a sweetie.
